craigslist

ive been looking for an apt the last couple weeks.
out of 20 i emailed, only 8 emailed back.
is it just me or is everyone in LA is a complete douche bag when it comes to responding back regarding their own ads?
i thought it's kinda rude not to respond, especially when they are the ones looking for roomates.
i went to look at a place yesterday and the owner didnt even show up. i called and left voice mails. she never called back to apologize.

FUCK! i HATE apartment hunting!

anyway, if you know of any great place in mid city/ la brea/ west hollywood area that has a bedroom open for 800-850, tell me!

Chino and its surroundings have long been a center of dairy farming, serving the considerable demands for milk products in Southern California and much of the southwestern United States. It is also well-known as the sites of three major California state prisons: the California Institution for Men, the California Institution for Women, and the California Youth Authority.

Lickey if it makes you feel better, I 100% flaked on a really awesome apt this past Saturday. I was supposed to meet the girl at 11:30 and I slept til about 2. She called me and left a message at 11:45 asking where I was and to let her know if I was gonna be late because she had to go pick up her friend from the airport and she was just waiting for me to get there to do the tour real fast. I still haven't called her back because I'm so embarrassed about what a gigantic flake that was. That is so unlike me. So...it goes both ways. There have been a ton of apts who never wrote back to me ever. You just gotta weed em out.

Oh man, that is harsh. I am sure she cried herself to sleep that night.

Re: craigslist

they probably have gotten a ton of emails before you.

Once there was an apt. right near me that sounded PERFECT so I emailed them and put "PICK ME PICK ME PLEASE" in the subject line and wrote a funny email telling them why they should call me right away and they did call me with in 20 minutes and the listing had been there for a few hours. The guy said he got tons of inquiries but my email stuck out.

Re: craigslist

that post just reminded me of something. one of the funniest things i have ever read on craigslist was a guy who was looking for an investor to get his clothing company off the ground. the company catered in designing clothing(mostly jeans and underwear) with prefabricated shit and piss and jizz stains on them...you heard right. before they pulled the ad down i saved the crude composite that came along with the ad that can be seen below...

Re: craigslist

i would rather wear these pants instead of the faded shit thats out there now. how the FUCK!!, you gonna buy new jeans that are fucking faded and torn? i already fucking have jeans like that, thats why the fuck im looking for a damn new pair. FUCK THIS PISSES ME THE FUCK OFF. FUCK!!
